The slander against Noam Chomsky is utterly outrageous. And the refusal of certain people to defend him against this torrent of defamatory slime is sickening cowardice.
Perversely, it's become one of the most repellent aspects of the entire Epstein saga.
The man is 97 years old, had a stroke a few years ago, and cannot even defend himself as he's being tarnished as some sort of depraved pedo enabler.
It's pure, unvarnished Salem Witch Trial-style hysteria.
Anyone perpetuating it has no standing to chuckle at the feeble-minded townsfolk in Colonial Massachusetts who thought they were being terrorized by literal witches.
Chomsky did nothing wrong. Epstein helped him with some unfortunate financial problems stemming from his first wife's death. They also occasionally socialized and maintained an email correspondence.
WHO GIVES A FUCK?
The supposedly damning PR advice that Chomsky gave Epstein also happened to be substantively correct. He was right that trying to use antiquated concepts like "reason" and "facts" in the public arena was totally pointless when it comes to hallucinated Pedo Panic theories.
Most ironic of all, Chomsky has been demonstrably harmed by this fiasco far more than most of the supposed "victims" who took a luxury vacation to the US Virgin Islands in the early 2000s and then years later decided to call it "trafficking" so they could collect millions of tax-free settlement money and proclaim themselves "survivors."
